Product Information

"One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequaled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories." -- The Guardian The basis for the 1947 French film noir classic Panique , which was rereleased in January 2017 Georges Simenon's chilling portrayal of tragic love, persecution and betrayal "One sensed in him neither flesh nor bone, nothing but soft, flaccid matter, so much so that his movements were hard to make out. Very red lips stood out from his orb-like face, as did the thin moustache that he curled with an iron and looked as if it had been drawn on with India ink; on his cheekbones were the symmetrical pink dots of a doll's cheeks." People find Mr. Hire strange, disconcerting. The tenants in his building try to avoid him. He is a peeping Tom, a frequent client of sex workers, a dealer in unsavory literature. He is also the prime suspect for a brutal murder that he did not commit. But Mr. Hire's innocence will not stand in the way of those looking for a scapegoat as tragedy unfolds in this quietly devastating and deeply unnerving novel.

Reviews
"The roman durs are extraordinary: tough, bleak, offhandedly violent, suffused with guilt and bitterness, redolent of place . . . utterly unsentimental, frightening in the pitilessness of their gaze, yet wonderfully entertaining."  -John Banville "One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequalled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories."  - The Guardian "I love reading Simenon. He makes me think of Chekhov." -William Faulkner "The greatest of all, the most genuine novelist we have had in literature." -André Gide "A supreme writer . . . unforgettable vividness." - The Independent "Superb . . . The most addictive of writers . . . A unique teller of tales." - The Observer "Compelling, remorseless, brilliant." -John Gray "A truly wonderful writer . . . marvellously readable-lucid, simple, absolutely in tune with the workd he creates." -Muriel Spark "A novelist who entered his fictional world as it he were a part of it." -Peter Ackroyd "Extraordinary masterpieces of the twentieth century." -John Banville, Praise for Georges Simenon: "One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequaled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories." -- The Guardian "These Maigret books are as timeless as Paris itself." -- The Washington Post "The matchless French crime novelist." --Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker "Maigret ranks with Holmes and Poirot in the pantheon of fictional detective immortals." -- People "I love reading Simenon. He makes me think of Chekhov." --William Faulkner "An astute observer of human nature, writing in a spare and vivid style." --Amor Towles "I never read contemporary fiction-with one exception: the works of Simenon." --T.S. Eliot "A writer as comfortable with reality as with fiction, with passion as with reason." --John Le Carré "One of the most important writers of our century." --Gabriel García Márquez "A favorite writer of mine." --Sigrid Nunez "A great writer of detail, of atmosphere." --Leïla Slimani "Feels incredibly modern...A great writer." --Ian Rankin "The greatest of all, the most genuine novelist we have had in literature." --André Gide "A supreme writer . . .

The corpses are incidental, it's the food that counts." Margaret Atwood "One of the greatest writers of the 20th century . . . no other writer can set up a scene as sharply and with such economy as Simenon does . . . the conjuring of a world, a place, a time, a set of characters - above all, an atmosphere." Financial Times "Gripping . . . richly rewarding . . . You'll quickly find yourself obsessing about his life as you tackle each mystery in turn."
